Deprecate events API/SDK

Open DylanRussell opened this issue 8 months ago • 2 comments

See https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/pull/4319.

Events API/SDK are deprecated. The logs API/SDK should be used in it's place. An event is just a LogRecord with the event_name field set.

I've already done most of the work and sent out PRs and stuff for this, there isn't much left to do.. The PRs are currently blocked on https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python/pull/4676 (this will make logs usable as a replacement for events)
